Hummus Wrap With Carrots and Cucumbers
Ingredients
Hummus:
1 15-oz can garbanzo beans
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons Tahini paste
1 garlic clove
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
Wrap:
1 10-inch tortilla
2 tablespoons hummus
1/2 cup shredded lettuce
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup julienned cucumber
1/4 cup black olives
Preparation
1
Start with hummus. Throw all the ingredients into a food processor and process until smooth. The mixture might be a bit thick and hard to process so you can add few tablespoons of water or a bit more olive oil.
2
Tip: if I don’t have tahini at home I simply toast 1 or 2 Tbsp sesame seeds and throw to a food processor instead of tahini.
3
Spread 2 Tbsp hummus in the center of a tortilla leaving about an inch on a top and bottom and few inches on a sides.
4
Follow with the lettuce, carrots, cucumbers and olives.
5
Fold top and bottom edges of the tortilla, turn 90 degrees and wrap the remaining tortilla around the filling. Wrap the tortilla in aluminum foil to hold its shape. Cut into half.
